Kids mess up.

So this morning had a heart to heart with my 2 year old. She woke up cranky and wouldn't eat breakfast. This has been going on for about 2 weeks now at every meal. The problem is she won't take naps, so she is always completely exhausted during the day which cause her to irritable.
So why do I write this?
Because Kylie is 2 years old, I have to be realistic in my expectations of her. She does not understand the benefits of a nap, she only sees what she is missing while she is going to be asleep.
This principle exist in all of God's children regardless of age. We don't want to miss anything out there, and end up being cranky and irritable due to our lack of rest. Let's take more time to do less. find rest in the Lord, and you will find Him giving you more strength.

Isa 40:29 He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.
Isa 40:30 Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
Isa 40:31 but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
